How Dare He!?

Guardian Arts Corespondent Charlotte Higgins is upset, very upset. Like all Guardianistas she is all for diversity - but sometimes things can go too far! Things like the National Assembly of Wales' Minister for Culture and the Welsh Language speaking Welsh in the National Assembly Building during a concert performed by the Welsh National Orchestra! Clearly not an appropriate situation in which to use the Welsh Language.

How dare he? Shocking Behaviour! - Shouldn't be allowed - sack the ignorant hick. If this sort of insulting attitude towards the English Language is allowed to go unchecked in Cardiff where might it lead? - Italian operas in Glyndebourne? German in Covent Garden? Outrageous!

Vote for Galeri

The short debate in today's plenary at the Assembly was opened by Alun Ffred, his debate praised the value of Galeri Caernarfon and the contribution that it has made to both the cultural and industrial future of Caernarfon. The example of Galeri was praised by all parties and was held up as an example to the whole of Wales on how local regeneration projects can benefit both the industrial and cultural life of a community.

In his address Alun Ffred noted that Galeri is up for a public vote award from the National Lottery. If any reader would like to support Galeri by casting a vote in its favour please click HERE
